The Private Sector in the REDD+ Supply Chain: Trends, challenges and opportunities

This policy brief by the International Institute for Sustainable Development discusses the critical role of private sector engagement in the REDD+ supply chain to scale up investment and provide technical expertise for mitigating climate change and deforestation.

• Private sector involvement is considered essential for the success of REDD+ because it can address the funding gap between public sector financing and the needs of developing countries, while also providing necessary technical expertise and addressing drivers of deforestation.
• Progress toward mobilizing private finance for REDD+ was advanced at the 17th Conference of the Parties through the recognition of market-based approaches and the willingness to diversify funding sources to include bilateral, multilateral, public, private, and alternative sources.
• Despite the importance of the private sector, there has been a lack of effort to identify the specific players, their roles, motivations, expertise, and the diversity of their involvement in REDD+.
